Elson Lecture

Notes on Painting

Terry Winters, artist

April 14 at 3:30PM

A prodigious painter, draftsman, and printmaker, Winters has pushed the boundaries of modern art while maintaining a keen sense of history and craft. The Gallery owns two important paintings by Winters: Bitumen (1986) and Composition (1991).

The Elson Lecture Series features distinguished contemporary artists whose work is represented in the Gallery's permanent collection. The Honorable and Mrs. Edward E. Elson generously endowed this series in 1992.

Presented free of charge with seating in the East Building Auditorium on a first-come, first-served basis. Doors open 30 minutes prior to lecture.
